About

PhD student at Harvard studying theoretical physics.
Graduating May 2027.

Research and interests

Non-perturbative approaches to strongly coupled quantum field theories and quantum many-body systems, especially variational techniques and the renormalization group. In my work, I target rigorous results through a combination of both analytical and computational methods.

I use frontier AI models throughout my research. I'm particularly interested in using AI to solve hard, technically demanding problems.
